Resources for Educators

The Hallie Ford Museum of Art offers educators and K-12 students a range of opportunities to explore works of art from different cultures and time periods.

The permanent collections feature works by historical and contemporary Pacific Northwest and American artists, an extensive exhibition of Native American basketry, a diverse collection of traditional European and Asian art, and art and artifacts that date from antiquity. In addition to its permanent collections, The Hallie Ford Museum of Art hosts special exhibitions that range from classical works to modern masters.

From interactive tours and evenings for educators to teacher guides used in the classroom, educational programs and materials based on the museum's collections and special exhibitions are designed to support curriculum goals and enhance the classroom experience through the visual arts.
